Oil Oil Mediums (Fluid)
Oil Mediums (Fluid)

Oil mediums are used for changing the consistency of the paint, rendering it more convenient for brushing or applying, or more suitable for the artists' particular technique, which may require paint that is thicker or thinner, faster or slower drying, more transparent or opaque. Glazes are added to paint to create thin, but permanent, veils of paint. The resin content creates optical depth similar to a colour varnish.

Underpainting Medium
Lean medium to be used for the 'first-sketch' in painting. Low oil content for rapid drying, minimising chances of cracking when overpainting with full strength colours. Stand Oil base ensures non-yellowing of artwork. (Stand Oil, Linseed Oil, Gum Turpentine, Cobalt Driers)
